Guest guest Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 The MindA negative thought came to my mind. He wore a charming smile And I was sorely tempted to invite him in awhile. And as I hesitated, He tapped softly on the door And whispered through the keyhole As he'd often done before. He said, " I'll help you hold your grudge, I'll help you sing the blues, It seems like all your folks and friends have turned their backs on you. " He said, " You've been misunderstood, Mistreated and maligned. I'll help you cry your heart out If you'll let me come inside. " But I kept my windows fastened And my doors securely closed, For I knew I'd be the loser If I let him take control.For negative thoughts can multiply And crowd the positives out And make the mind a cesspool Of anxiety and doubt. And so I told the negative thought I could not let him in. He went his way, but I am sure That he'll return again. But no more will I greet him With a welcome or a smile And never will I entertain him Even for awhile. I'll fill my mind with positive thoughts And on the door install a sign which reads, " DO NOT DISTURB " when negative comes to call.For tho' he knocks a thousand times And yet, a thousand more He cannot dominate my mindif I don't open the door.
